**************** Recently, the sources for two programs that implement the ZMODEM protocol for UNIX were posted to net.sources. Sounds like a good protocol, now what I need is something that uses it on the MS-DOS side of the connection. The documentation that came with the Unix version mentioned a program called Professional-YAM, and a couple of others, but I haven't been able to find any of them, either in stores or in places like SIMTEL20, BBS's, etc. Any pointers would be appreciated. -Randy Gobbel Arpanet: Gobbel.pa@xerox.com Phone: (415)494-4363, (415)968-6799

It claims to add Zmodem protocol to your favorite comm program. If you can't locate it, send me E-mail and I'll make it available. There is one just starting to appear called ZCOMM or something similar. I'm not sure what it is. ****************************************************************************** UUCP: {akgua, hplabs!hp-sdd, sdcsvax, nosc}!crash!pnet01!dparker ARPA: crash!pnet01!dparker INET: dparker@pnet01.CTS.COM Dave Parker (voice 619/565-3276) County of San Diego (O338) 5555 Overland Avenue San Diego, CA 92123 Disclaimers?
